Privacy Policy

ParkZen will notify its users of any material changes to this Privacy Policy either through e-mail or through the Application. Continued use of the Application indicates a user’s acceptance of the Privacy Policy as amended.

 

Information ParkZen Collects:

 

ParkZen accesses a phone’s GPS information when the Application detects a significant change in motion (i.e. from walking to driving) or when a user utilizes the Application’s directions to an open spot. The Application will collect and process information about a user’s actual location while giving directions. ParkZen will not share its user’s actual location information with anyone. Users can deny ParkZen access to motion and location tracking while still being able to use the Application’s map function.


ParkZen does not require a username to use the Application and its users remain anonymous. The Application does not collect personal identifying information about its users such as names or contact information . After a parking spot is vacated the Application will alert other users of the approximate location of the vacated spot. The information collected does not identify the user, the car, or the direction of travel after a parking spot is vacated.

 

Uses of Information


ParkZen may utilize information collected from your phone or provided by its users for the following purposes:

​

  • to provide users with information about open parking spots nearby;

Personal information that you share:


The Application is based on a community of users anonymously sharing information about their recently vacated curbside parking spots.  When you use the ParkZen application, we may collect and process information about your car's parking location. ParkZen uses several technologies to determine location, including GPS and other sensors. In particular, by downloading the app users choose to share when they are leaving a curbside parking spot.  This vacant curbside information may be shared both directly to the Application and to all users, by showing a ParkZen icon with the number of minutes since the spot was vacated. The content that you share to all users (vacated curbside parking spots only) is neither private nor confidential. However, your email address, first and last name, and home address will not be visible to others through any reports or user posts that you share or upload. Although ParkZen takes great measures to provide you with the best experience while using the Service, ParkZen has no control over the conduct of any individual user and disclaims any and all liability in this regard. Participating in any user's activities as a result, directly or indirectly, from using ParkZen, is entirely at the user’s own risk. ParkZen is not a party to any agreement entered into between the users in any circumstances. The user has the sole and ultimate responsibility regarding compliance with all laws, regulation or any other duty. ParkZen does not accept any liability for any loss, damage, cost or expense that you may suffer or incur as a result of or in connection with your participation in any activity or event initiated, held or conducted by a user or a third party nor in connection to any agreement between the users or third parties, including any activity or event related in any way, directly or indirectly, with the Application or the use thereof.

​

ParkZen requires certain types of personal information only for users that make use of the ParkZen seamless pay feature for parking payments. In order to use the ParkZen app to pay for parking in select partner locations, the users will need to provide their vehicle's license plate number, e-mail address and preferred payment details.

Data retention and deletion:

​

If you would like ParkZen to delete your Account, simply delete the Application from your phone. Your location and route history is associated with your Account and your username or unique identifier generated by ParkZen (if you have chosen not to set up a username). This information is held by ParkZen for such limited period of time as is necessary in order for ParkZen to be able to provide you with the Services and the uses described in this Privacy Policy. At the end of this period of time, ParkZen will then anonymize or de-identify your historical parking data. If any of the information associated with your Account is not accurate, complete or updated, you must make all necessary changes to correct it.

 

How ParkZen uses aggregated information:

​

ParkZen may use de-identified, statistical or aggregated information collected on the Application, in a form that does not enable the identification of a specific user, by posting, disseminating, transmitting or otherwise communicating or making available such information to users of the Application, to the Application' providers, partners, and any other third party.  For example, GPS information that we receive from your mobile device may be provided to City planners or private enterprises in an aggregated and/ or anonymous form to help improve the location and maintenance of curbside parking options problems.
